Question

which statement primarily appeals to pathos to support the position that the government should provide more funding for arts education? if we want more of our young people to become creative geniuses instead of metaphorical cogs, we must invest in arts education that begins at an early age. one study found that students who participate in the arts are four times more likely to be recognized for academic achievement. consider the position of the president, who has said in a number of interviews that funding for the arts needs to be a priority.

Explanation:

Pathos appeals to emotions. The first statement uses emotional language like "creative geniuses" vs "metaphorical cogs" to evoke feelings about young people's development, aiming to persuade about arts education funding. The second uses a study (logos, appeal to logic/evidence) and the third uses the president's opinion (ethos, appeal to authority), so the first is pathos - based.

Answer:

If we want more of our young people to become creative geniuses instead of metaphorical cogs, we must invest in arts education that begins at an early age.
